Soldiers kill seven Taliban
AFGHAN soldiers backed by US troops and helicopters have killed seven Taliban and captured 12 others in a sweeping raid in a remote region of southern Afghanistan.
Three Afghan soldiers also died and five others were wounded in the two days of fighting in Chaar Cheno districtâs rugged mountainous terrain, about 90 miles northeast of Kandahar.
It was not immediately clear if there were any important Taliban commanders among the dead or captured rebels.

Thanks for the ping, Coop, and the post, PatrioticCowboy.
Waiting for further details. Could this have been last week's raid? CENTCOM's slow to provide details these days. The author doesn't say when.
Not that I mind repeating good news....(^;

Two days of fighting and only seven dead??? Something doesn't compute here. What size force were they up against?
To: TomB
LOL, as long as the behaviour gets conditioned one way or the other... ;-)

Best news I've heard all day. Salute!
